The new book cover features image generated using premium tools at dream.ai, based on a photo of the author taken by her husband during a trip to see ancient Mayan ruins in Tulum, Mexico, celebrating her 65th birthday. 

2025 Book Cover: The Saardu Trilogy

This digital book is now available at https://books2read.com/Carma-Gagne-Chan/

The beautiful thing about being a creative being is that you can take any idea you like and turn it into something you love. For example, ideas for a book cover in the digital era can continually evolve. There is no reason to be stuck with one look. A book can have its own wardrobe, a variety of styles that express the creator's personality. Below is the book cover offered in 2022, featuring an artistic interpretation inspired by Vincent Van Gogh, based on the image shown below, a 2022 James Webb Telescope image of the iconic Pillars of Creation, thanks to NASA and STSCI teams.

Filtered through GoArt, an NFT app found in Apple and Google Play stores. Carma tried many styles and landed on Van Gogh 2.

She then used an ordinary image editor to alter contrast, saturation, shadow, and resampled to fill a 6x9 book cover, then added text with Fedora font. The new cover (top image) is in process and will go live in time for shoppers who are looking for books to give readers with an appetite for vividly imaginative stories unlike anything else published for earthlings.
